configure has detected your "ar" binary to be "false", which
really
doesn't work. I'm not sure what the right way to fix this would be  
(see what config.log says about it), but one workaround at least  
would be if you ran make as:

make AR=ar

Of course if you don't have ar at all in the path, that's your  
problem. :) Looks like it exists in /usr/ccs/bin/.

Thanks. 

make AR=ar works
